Burn Book 02:26
lyrics
I didn't have to wait until August To set myself on fire Burn you at tha stake In tha black flames Everything seems...less inspired So when tha sun goes west Your true pastels manifest But they won't get you very far 'Cause in tha moonlight you'll be seen For what you really are Who you really are So when tha sun sets I'll know who to bloodlet You're sky sent? Come in my focus You're not tha man you proclaim Well how long will you confess it? It's like you made tha realization But you failed to address it I'm sick of tha lies Your advice in nursery rhymes Worthless verses you scream In search of tha dollar signs Messengers? Belt of Orion? I've heard it all before You plagiarize tha Bible Charge a cover at tha door Record deal with tha devil And I hope it's paying off You aren't real Thoughts are sterile Empty words from empty hearts You'll be found out soon enough It makes me who I am to hate Tha person that you've come to be You're tha reason Those in need Won't believe tha shit you feed I love Jesus Christ Not Religion And I believe in God Not Christians

Why Are You White? 01:59
lyrics
Shit just got real Saving your harshest judgements For what you do not understand Hate means nothing without truth There's no righteousness In ignorant abuse What makes a man a man Isn't who he loves But whether he can But we were coming from tha Sidelines It's high time tha people shine But I won't be One of those who stand in line I didn't have to ask to tell You live in fear But as for me and my crew I'll make it perfectly clear And that's that Ain't nobody fuckin' with me man Ain't nobody fuckin' with me Nadie me pone a prueba Y nadie sin par Ain't nobody fuckin' with me Thought by now you'd know it Comes as no surprise With these \||/'s I'm throwin' When tha wolves roam tha throneroom With integrity's ghost 'Cause to this game We remained Truer than most To violate tha dignity of another In any form or way Is a direct contradiction And just a sad misunderstanding Of tha tenets of tha faith To violate the dignity of another Much less for being gay Is a direct contradiction And just a sad misunderstanding Of tha tenets of tha faith What makes a man a man Isn't who he loves But whether he can

Staring Problem 02:48
lyrics
Cut my bracelets Cut my losses I hope you're happy... Welcome home. Burning bridges Burning crosses If that's love and this is friendship I'd rather die alone 12:01 am begins a new day But not for you because You'll always be tha same way Ending right where you start And breaking your mother's heart But bottoms up; you've gotta live up To what they say It's hard to even call it (It's not real life) Selfishness You're just a coward (Time to grow up) Too scared to be someone else You'll end up dying in tha same bed (Or say goodnight) That you lay (Standing still's not tha same as being stuck) I shut tha door As I watched you hit tha floor And thank God you're not my problem Anymore How long is forever again? I guess it's hard to remember While fishing for tha new trend For you to fail at in no time Wake up loser: it's showtime! All tha world's a stage And you're just a stagehand With your half retarded brother And your rent payed by your mother Running your mouth Like you think we know each other So if you need a role model or Someone to look up to Just check overhead 'Cause I will always be above you Like everything Is exactly what it seems And no one ever changes So there's no point in dreams Believe everything you hear Tell everyone you know Now that I'm here Your threats weren't ever sincere Face-to-face True feelings begin to show I see that every thing Is exactly as it seems No one ever changes So there's no point in dreams I'm seeing that tha gleam Has fallen from your eyes Seein tha light for tha first time As it blinds Eye contact Better not blink Watch your step Watch your head 'Cause you better not think But I'm getting off subject I'm about to make public Cowards undone It's time for tha trumpets Lightyears behind me You haven't moved up That's more than bad luck Probably 'cause you suck It's a staring contest: You and I If looks could kill I'd watch you die Believe everything you hear Tell everyone you know

Pro-Wrestling is Real; People Are Fake (Feat. Rick Is Hell) 02:18
lyrics
It's your opinion Versus our decision We're not in competition You don't own this No one owns this Stop choosing sides We've gotta evolve Diversify Sanctuary isn't property We belong to tha music We don't answer to you Too hard for this carnival These marks won't keep us From breaking through Confined To what you define This music should be And who gets to join your act From tha nest to Eden And I'm never looking back It's time you stop throwing tha walls up And living in a past you weren't even a part of Strain tha brain Try to comprehend I can see tha surface We can rise again It's your opinion Versus our decision We're not in competition You don't own this No one owns this Stop choosing sides We've gotta evolve Diversify Sanctuary doesn't discriminate We belong to tha music We don't answer to you Too hard for this carnival These marks won't keep us From breaking through We make tha challenges now It's tha war not tha warrior Confusing people with tha policy From tha beginning Thought we're kidding I wasn't I'm sayin' hardcore lives Originality doesn't YOU KNOW IT Wanting to stand oh so "united" Wondering where everyone is Disrespecting and alienating Lose tha boundary lines Until then it's like this: Everyone is on notice... You don't own this.

Chavela 03:33
lyrics
I stand correct Dying to be corrected Disease surrounds like seas but It won't leave me infected I did what I had to Only the strong survive We all want to be legendary Tha impossible Can become unstoppable If you are awesome We are infinite Nobody dies of old age They just fade When white turns to beige And luck turns to fate With tha spacemonkeys And approval junkies All for tha pat and tha wave Honesty overflows in my mind So try not to cry When you realize You're blindly alive Remember when I said Everyone is tha same? I stand correct Dying to be corrected Disease surrounds like seas but It won't leave me infected I stand correct Dying to be corrected We all want to be legendary Its so easy for me To smile and pose for tha camera While I'm on tha cross But half tha time I'm tha one who's holding tha hammer And causing tha loss So when you see me Playing tha victim And raising tha cost It's all to put things Back into frame Remember when I said I'm tha only one to blame? I stand correct Dying to be corrected Disease surrounds like seas but It won't leave me infected I did what I had to Only the strong survive We all want to be legendary To fear or revere I just want you to hear me Destined for glory But bound for redeeming To diamonds shining From just a face in tha crowd We're unstoppable now Chavela We're unstoppable now
